covid 2. the licensed vaccine community was approved on august 23, 2021 for the use in individuals 16 years of age and older. each 0.3 mill dose contains 30 micrograms of (r)rna, the same amount of that as the biontech covid vaccine and can be used interchangeably with the of course biontech vaccine to provide vaccination or a booster dose. more than the covid-19 vaccine is authorized under eua for use to provide two-dose primary one month apart in individuals 18 years of age and older. third primary series dose in certain immunocompromised individuals, a single homologous booster dose. please note that the interval for the moderna covid-19 vaccine is the same as the pfizer biontech covid vaccine. the johnson covid vaccine is authorized for the use to provide a single-dose primary vaccination in individuals 18 years of age and older, a single booster dose administered at least two months after the primary vaccination to individuals 18 years of age and older, a single heterologous or mix and ma

and post covid conditions. often we'll talk briefly about transmission lost interest in learning and otherov impacts. as of october 22 there been over 45 million cases of covid-19 reported in the u.s. the majorities present in adults as most hospitalizations and illness. however children have been greatly affected by the pandemic. here'sre reported cases by aged children five -- 11 years of age, and total 1.9 million cases of covid-19 in this age group rates are in july and august of this year there's a a sharp increase in cases. over the past two months we have seen children five -- 11 yearshe shown here again a dark blue or making up a greater proportionar of total cases. representing 10.7 of all cases reported to the cdc the week of october 10, 2021 may cap 8.7%we of the population in the 2020 census. on the data i showed on the previous two slides, reported to the cdc many infections are asymptomatic result and are not reported. cdc conducts ongoing study done in collaboration with commercial laboratories.

due to covid-19. second, high vaccination coverage in your community translates into fewer cases, less of a burden on your local health care system, lower disease rates in your classrooms, and better health for those around you. including protecting children less than 12 years old who are not yet eligible for vaccination. while we have made tremendous progress in our campaign to vaccinate as many americans as possible, we still have work to do to make sure that vaccination coverage is high and even across the country. this week c.d.c. released a health alert highlighting the incredibly low rates of vaccination in pregnant people and those who may become pregnant. a group of people who are at high risk from severe complication from covid-19. overall, only 31% of pregnant people are fully vaccinated. and only 15% of black pregnant people are vaccinated. i want to re-enforce these vaccines are safe and effective, including during pregnancy. the benefits of vaccination far outweigh any risk to both mom an

of this covid-19. i think it certainly could incorporate the effects of social media on the mental health outcomes. now that adolescence as young as 12 eligible for the vaccines, they're playing an increasingly role in protecting millions of churn in this country. parents are sensitive to safety considerations when decide wlg to vaccinate the children, even children 12 ander older eligibl for the pfizer vaccine. so, doctor, how safe and effectiver is this vaccine for youth, particularly compared to other routine immunizations such as those against the flu and measles? >> yes. thank you so much. it's extraordinarily safe and no effective vaccine. you know, we know, you know, millionsct of teens have gottent so far. it is safe and effective. and, in fact, more effective than some of the other vaccines that we give it has a very high efficacy. again, i note both of my teenagers have gotten it. >> thank you. thank you for your response. and dr. rush, in your testimony, you state,te and i quote, tennessee i

concerned about covid in your kid's classroom? we investigate how the virus is spreading in schools and what many districts are missing when it comes to protecting students and teachers. plus, have bay area researchers actually discovered a cure for covid? stephen stock: so, wait a minute, you're tellin' me, in cells, you're able to completely eliminate covid-19? eddie wehri: pretty much, yeah. announcer: we investigate what's delaying potential life-saving treatments that could wipe out the virus. and a battle over how to slow down wildfires heats up as some scientists challenge the long-standing strategy of thinning forest to control the flames. stephen stock: good evening. thanks for joining us. i'm stephen stock. tonight, we begin with the fight against covid. while the united states has been great at developing covid vaccines, our health care system still lags behind other countries in treating the actual disease if you get it. here in the bay area, scientists developed a potential miracle cure that could save lives in the ba

it is not just the sars covid or covid two virus that can cause harm to our children. many of our children are suffering from elevated levels of anxiety, depression, obesity, and eating disorders, or lacking, lagging in educational and social development resulting from the pandemic school closures. there have also been concerns over increases in abuse and neglect of children during the covid-19 pandemic, and the impact of many schools teaching remotely since educators are mandatory reporters and service our primary reporters of the abuse and neglect of children in the united states. these concerns underscore the need for our children to remain in school or in person learning. thankfully, children can be back in school and be safe. the two are not mutually exclusive. i call on all states and local districts to focus on keeping schools open, prioritize our children, not political mantras. therevention recommends everyone 12 years of age and older get vaccinated, in addition vaccine manufacturers conduct nickel trials and conduct data on vaccines for children 11 years age

aggressively exploring how to bring covid to an end. today, we have conducted oversight on numerous issues from the on ground experience to vaccine development, distribution and uptake. curbing covid-19 has been and remains this subcommittee's top priority until we bring the pandemic to an end. today's topping is central to the concern of families across the country. how the pandemic affects our children, and had to continue to ensure their health and well-being. as millions of students start the new school year, patients are facing agonizing decisions. families across the country are balancing the risk and challenges of keeping their children safe, while striving to support their overall developmental and growth. experts agree the best place for children is in the classroom, but only if steps are taken to make schools a safe ways. the goal we all share is even kids safe. a goal that has been threatened throughout the pandemic. while children have been spared the same rates of severe symptoms m's or death, we know that they are far from

the majority of covid deaths were attributed to comorbidities in the presence of covid. the deaths of five to 11-year-olds was 0.008% by the total number of cases. when the deaths were examined on the whole population of 0-17-year-olds, the compromised correction on the slide, the correct number is 014 present deaths relative to the total covid-19 cases reported in the age group. the overwhelmingly likelihood of the survival rate of 99% in children is not for emergency use. we can skip this slide that shows the adverse events reported to the various database following exposure to the pfizer vaccine with 25 deaths reported to the six-7-year-old age group and the life-threatening event. there's is notoriously underreported. in canada, 206 reports of bell's palsy warranted an update to the monograph. canada has one tenths of the population. in addition there's been increasing reports of menstrual irregularities following the covid vaccination to the point that the ni chd awarded $1.67 million in a research fund. yet this isn't even appearing as an adverse event of special i

on covid. in terms of the negative impacts, we need more studies on that but europe and scandinavia have not masks under the age of 12 because they need proof it works and we are taking the opposite approach that we will mask into we find evidence we don't need it. >> you agree there are other side effects that could happen because mask mandate. >> the gentleman's time has expired. do you want to answer the question? >> so obviously there's a reason we don't wear masks all day every day. the benefit of seeing people smiling to being comfortable without a mask on are pretty obvious in terms of serious side effects. we need more research. >> thank you for your indulgence. >> the chair recognizes questions for five minutes. >> thank you for the discussion this morning. lee salvio beers, we heard the children are 20 times more likely to get affected outside schools then inside. is this the accepted statistic? >> that was one study but i believe i agree the children are more likely to get infected w

or will go on to develop on covid -- long covid, because i personally taking care of kids who have had a couple weeks, if not a couple months of shortness of breath, tight chest, headaches, fatigue. we suspected long covid. in their initial infection was a positive test, no actual symptoms. parents in this situation, these are the times i'm saying this is a great question. please go and talk to your pediatrician, your family practice doctor, a friend who got their child vaccinated, and just ask these questions and get some more opinions about this. because just because you got it in the past, remember you're also not protected in the future. we don't know what's going to happen in the winter. i'm hoping cases go down. but could there be another sub variant? could there be an outbreak in your community? absolutely. kristen: can you get the flu shot and the vaccine at the same time? dr. patel: you can. i hope the cdc addresses this next week. you should. kristen: dr. patel, always great talking to you. gladney and the audience were able to beat you both times with two truths and alive. d

it is not just the sars covid, or covid two virus that can cause harm to our children. many of our children are suffering from levels of anxiety, depression, eating disorders, or lacking in and you occasional development due to school closures. there have been increases in neglect and abuse of children due to the pandemic. the impact of many schools teaching remotely, educators are mandatory reporters, and serve as our primary reporters of the abuse and neglect of children in the united states. these concerns underscore the need for our children terrain and school for in-person learning. frankly children can be back in school, and safe. the two are not mutually exclusive. i call on all states and local districts to focus on schools open, prioritize our children not political mansions. the centers for disease control and prevention, cdc, recommends that everyone 12 years of age an older get vaccinated. in addition vaccine manufacturers continue to conduct trials on children ages 11 years of age and younger. in fact the pfizer and biontech recently announced that its covi

do children get long covid? >> yes, children can get long covid. we're still learning more about that, but they can get it and it can be very impactful in their -- on their lives. >> can you just list a couple of the primary symptoms they get so people understand how severe long covid potentially is? >> yeah, absolutely. they can have cardiac heart symptoms, they can have persistent lung symptoms. neurologic symptoms where they, you know, have trouble thinking. many of them have really debilitaing fatigue and dizziness, where they have difficulty standing up and going about their daily lives. >> we don't even know how long that will last. so have rates of covid in children increased with the start of the school year? >> yes. we definitely have been seeing more covid. >> and that difference is different in different parts of the country. what would you say has distinguished schools where there has been lots of transmission from schools where there has not been lots of transmission since masks have been a very contentious topic today? >> yeah, absolu

on this slide the protocol defined covid-19 and severe covid-19 disease. covid-19 was defined as theas presence of at least one of the following listed symptoms including cough, shortness of breath and chills et cetera, meaning that only one the symptom was needed to meet the definition. and confirmed sars-cov-2 positive test during or within four days before or after the symptomatic period. in this descriptive analysis of the vaccine efficacy of asymptomatic up to the data cutoff was 90.7% and participants without evidence of prior sars-cov-2 infection. a total of three cases of covid-19 occurred in the vaccine group, 16 and the placebo group with most cases occurring during july and august, 2021 when the delta variant was prevalent in ebthe u.s. at the time of the data cutoff, 90.7 met the criteria for severe covid-19. all cases occurred in children acwithout prior history of covid-19 infection. all cases of covid-19 were confirmed by the lab with no cases of covert and participants with a prior history of sars-cov-2 infection. in the covid-19 cases, vac

the white house covid-19 virtual briefing. this is about early minutes. >> thank you for joining us. first, i want to provide an update on our efforts to protect more americans by getting more shots in arms, starting with vaccinating the unvaccinated. thanks to the president's leadership on vaccination requirements, we continue to make important progress. more than 3500 organizations, from health-care systems to educational institutions to state and local governments to private businesses, they have already stepped up to adopt vaccination requirements. these vaccination requirements have increased vaccination rates by 20% plus, with organizations routinely seeing their share of fully vaccinated workers rise above 90%. on monday, washington state announced more than 90% of state employees are now fully vaccinated. that is up from around 49% just five weeks ago. with more people getting vaccinated each day ahead of the state's october 18 deadline. importantly, since late july when the president first announced vaccination requir

to covid or those two covid complications? >> we don't have that level of data yet. that will come out of the vital statistics data and it takes a while for that to mature. we are concerned about what impact not only covid has had directly but the impact covid has had on other causes of death as well. you may recall there have been stories about people delaying care seeking behavior because they didn't want to go to the hospital because that is where covid was. they didn't want to leave the house because they were concerned about covid so they did not get the regular health care visits. i would expect to see increases in the number of deaths for a variety of causes that were initially or primarily treatable but for which treatment was delayed. i expect to see a large number of excess deaths. how that will play out versus on the urban-rural continuum i don't know yet. host: mr. mueller, the government accountability office tells us when it comes to hospitals and places you can get care several closures over the years saying the

did not have covid-19 infection previously. as we anticipate authorization for vaccine for children, i want to emphasize ways we can continue to protect our children today. surrounded children with people who are vaccinated protects them against covid-19. it's important we continue to vaccinate as many adults as possible to provide protection to children in the community, especially those who may not be eligible for vaccination themselves. we must continue to help our children follow the prevention measures we know will keep them safe, continuing to wear masks in schools and other indoor settings, choosing outdoor settings, avoiding crowds and in poorly vent rate lated space -- ventilated spaces and wash hands often. those unvaccinated are leaving themselves and children vulnerable. if you have not been vaccinated against covid-19, i urge you to consider the many benefits of vaccination. thank you. i'll now turn things over to dr. fauci. dr. fauci: thank you very much, dr. walensky. in line with the discussion of the importance

so i do expect inflation to decelerate and pre-covid inflation dynamics to return when covid disruptions dissipate. with delta disrupting the rotation from goods to services andro longing -- and prolonging supply bottlenecks, we don't know how it will go from this year to next year. first, while rent and owner's equivalent rose .3% in august, housing services inflation rose more than exacted. it could provide durable upward pressure on inflation. there is a risk goods prices may not decelerate and return to their pre-covid trends as is wisely expected. third, of course, i think we are all watching for any signs that wage gains are feeding into higher inflation more broadly. but the evidence so far suggests that wage gains are broadly in line with productivity. and that the labor share of income remains relatively low. finally, i'm vigilant for any signs that the current high level of inflation might push longer term inflation above levels consistent with the 2% target. market-based measures of inflation compensation, such as the tips five year five year forward measure suggests those inf

even when they recovered from the organ system issues of covid they can get what's called long covid and we have examples of people they may not necessarily be pilots and maybe there are some book gotten covid and have had an unexplained but real impact on their ability to function normally. it just underscores what dr. dr. murthy said. getting covid is far far worse than getting vaccinated for absolutely certain. >> wonderful. next question please. >> i was wondering if you could walk us through your considerations on policies in schools and if and when the cdc willll be -- from this. >> thank you for that question. wees are working with states to evaluate the policy is a promising strategy for schools so there will be guidance forthcoming. stick you want to extend a few sentences for those who don't actually know? >> absolutely. it would be a policy where rather than quarantining after potential exposure that they could potentially instead come back to school but tests so we would know if they are returned to school on a testing basis that they could come back to school. >> nextsc

covid symptoms, we hear about brain fog. in the study, adolescents had symptoms like suicidal thoughts, paranoia like fears, delusions, foggy brain. they all were in the context of acute covid. when they looked at the antibodies in the cerebral spinal fluid, the fluid that feeds the brain, there are antibodies that were developed because of covid in the body that attack pieces of the brain that led to these psychiatric symptoms. so we think about, you know, other symptoms like brain fog and, you know, shortness of breath. but i think the psychiatric symptoms of depression and delusions and paranoia, these are really, really increasing being recognized with acute covid, and it's something you definitely don't want your child or adolescent to get. in fact, one study showed one third of these kids had a new diagnosis of psychiatric diagnosis during covid. of those who got the psychiatric diagnosis. >> another reason doctors say kids should get the covid vaccine. doctor, thanks for your time. >> as the headlines come down on vac

you'd use once you have covid. correct? >> correct, it's going to be a game changer, jess, it's not -- certainly not a magic bullet but it's really close to it. and, again, it's not going to supplant vaccinations, this is for the people who probably won't respond to vaccines, but who get sick despite getting the vaccine, say we have a new variant or something like that, and i think it will have a lot of benefit. the other interesting thing while this pill is that they are also looking at it for post exposure prophylaxis. if you have somebody in your household who has covid, and you're exposed to them. before you get it, you can actually take this pill in the future if the other trial turns out to be positive to prevent you from getting it in the first place. >> that's huge, that would deal with exposure, you have it and all the sudden you've got your mom and dad and kids in the house. they'd be able to take it. this is an anti-viral but we've had other anti-virals, what's different about this particular pill that w

the white house covid-19 response team talked about and expensing -- expansion of testing options, covid and flu vaccinations and therapeutics. >> thanks for joining us. in a moment i will turn to doctors wilensky, fauci and murphy. i will start with discussing progress we're making on testing, vaccination and boosters, three critical arts of the president six point plan to accelerate the recovery from the pandemic. first, testing. in the past few months, testing has increased. particularly at home testing, and convenient option that came to market earlier this year. to meet this increased demand, the president's plan wraps up the availability of tests -- ramps up the availability of test and access to pretesting. in a matter of weeks we have made significant progress on both fronts. in september at the president's direction, the federal government invested $2 billion to ensure tests are available to those who need them and purchase value that allows them to ramp up production. we are making even more progress. on monday, fda authorized a new rapid at-home test from laboratories which wi

even before covid. _ effecting the whole situation? even before covid, influenza _ effecting the whole situation? even before covid, influenza was one of the main driving factors affecting the main driving factors affecting the nhs through the winter and that still remains of that, the problem with covid as well, is twofold, if a lot of your beds are occupied with people with covid there are not as many beds to go around to deal with the influenza epidemic but also, if you have patients who have influenza and covid at around the same time, that count more than double the risk of death and double the risk of hospitalisation so it could well be a particularly severe impact if we get a lot of influenza in the coming weeks. ., , ,., get a lot of influenza in the coming weeks. ., ,,., ., .,, weeks. professor paul hunter, as ever, weeks. professor paul hunter, as ever. thanks _ weeks. professor paul hunter, as ever, thanks for _ weeks. professor paul hunter, as ever, thanks forjoining _ weeks. professor paul hunter, as ever, thanks forjoinin

we know that you get covid because you are exposed to it. adults have significantly lower rates of being infected with covid. when adults in a child's life are vaccinated, that significantly decreases their exposure. >> your voice is so important. youth ages 12 to 18 at the lowest vaccination rate of any age group. why do you think it is so low? >> thank you for your kind words.

recently, cdc added new data on our covid data tracker that reports covid-19 outcomes by vaccination status. here you can see some of the data that we are now posting to covid data tracker. in august, as we were experiencing the peak of the delta surge, 16 jurisdictions provided data on cases and deaths stratified by vaccination status. unvaccinated people had 6.1 times greater risk of testing positive for covid-19, shown on the left, and 11.3 times greater risk of dying from covid-19, shown on the right, when compared of those who are fully vaccinated shown by the light blue line at the bottom. as you've heard me say before, vaccination prevents hospitalizations due to covid-19. on covid data tracker, we are also displaying the age adjusted rates of covid-19 associated hospitalizations by vaccination status in adults over the age of 18. for the week ending august 28th, 2021, the hospitalization rate in fully vaccinated people was 4.5 per 100,000, showing by the green line. while the hospitalization rate in unvaccinated people was 83.6 per 100,000, shown by the blue line. an 18.5-fol

masks prevent the spread of covid-19. and in schools that have high spread and which we're seeing across the country, it is critically important that masks are being utilized. the promotion of vaccinations for students that are eligible is critically important to reduce spread and make sure that if students do contract covid-19. quarantining when students do have covid, or are exposed to someone that did, until they are able to get tested, that's critically important. our schools must be safe for learning, and we have to make sure we are communicating what we are doing to keep students safe. it's our responsibility to follow the science, as my colleague here, secretary best sarah has shown. in places that you follow mitigation strategies, we are able to keep students in the classroom without disruption. it's our responsibility to keep our students and our staff safe. >> secretary becerra? >> madam chair, the evidence has spoken. the science is clear. vaccines are the safest most effective route to keeping our kids safe, e

in germany, you can get a rapid covid test for less than $1. in india, a rapid covid test is $3.14. the uk provides free tests to everybody in the united kingdom. the studies have shown that adults, if the tests are a dollar or two, they'll get tests to make sure they can go to work, or they'll test their kid to make sure it's safe to go to school. but if it's $15, the willingness to test yourself dramatically goes down. i think there is bipartisanship on the issue that we ought to have tests that people can afford. why are tests in the united states so much more expensive than in countries like germany, the uk or india, and what are we doing to make sure the costs are costs that people can afford? >> senator, i'm not sure i hav the answer, but remember germany has a federal system that allows them to move much faster than we do. we have a republic that dictates the 50 states so much over this. some states prepared better, some states didn't. what we're trying to do is coordinate far better with them. among the billions of dollars you all made available to us in supplemental appropr
